Layer Brush

You can find it in the Brush browser:



From the Blender reference manual's page:


  This brush is similar to Draw, except that the height of the displacement layer is capped. This creates the appearance of a solid layer being drawn. This brush does not draw on top of itself; a brush stroke intersects itself. Releasing the mouse button and starting a new stroke will reset the depth and paint on top of the previous stroke.


Persistent base option enabled will allow to sculpt without overlaps.

See the different behavior in the image sequence below:



Remember to set the Intensity of the brush to 1, or the stroke will not reach the "capping" level, leading to an accumulation when you draw upon an already sculpted area.
